I just read this post https://lemmy.world/post/1041399 And I wonder if messages here are end to end encrypted, or readable by admins or semi- public like voting? Thanks

Yeah, but anytime you use an instance on Lemmy you need to trust those admins. With this being open source its fairly trivial to change it for nefarious purposes while still maintaining the core functionality. Changing links to point to whatever. JavaScript changes to steal the password entered (since so many reuse passwords) etc.
Of course, but it is always good to know what they could do in the worst case.
